google earth

Maybe I am really late to this, but I just got blown away.

I downloaded Google Earth to my mac and it is freaking amazing.

It has Youtube layers that show up so that if you post a video at, lets say the statue of liberty it will show up on google earth for all to watch.  I just watched some videos from the waterfall we went to in San Ramon, Costa Rica.

Google earth also shows traffic reports, weather, and of course places of interest in real time.  How bad is that!

If this gets any higher resolution it will be creepy.  We will be able to zoom in on people while they are tanning on the beach...hmmmm!  All kind of ethical implications there!

This is a screen shot to my hometown Davenport, Ia.

So you know you want to... take five minutes and go play!

Ben,
That program is called scrivener. It is a book writing program, it is pretty tight.
